The School of Medicine and Department of Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University are seeking at least two positions for a full-time postdoc who will contribute to the teaching of medical students in Medical Human Gross Anatomy (including neuroanatomy) as well as other anatomically-based medical school courses at an advanced and clinical level. Candidates will also be involved in new curriculum development including radiological imaging of cadaveric specimens for teaching and research. Candidates will be expected to participate in research in the laboratories of faculty in the Department of Evolutionary Anthropology.

Priority will be given to candidates interested in working with faculty who teach in the medical school or teach anatomy courses at the university using medical school resources.

Appointments may be for one to three years with the possibility of annual renewal thereafter. The length of initial and renewal appointments is based on multiple factors including experience, performance, and budgetary considerations. Teaching and research performance are evaluated annually with renewal based on these evaluations.
